ABOUT THIS ALBUM

Album Notes

Jazz with a hard rock / funk flavor

"The Window" is Sea Rocket Jasmine’s debut project, with a wide-ranging series of expressive moods in a narrative flow that is a treat to hear from start to finish. Try ‘Shepherd’ or ‘Sun Nova’ to make your VU meter jump, or ‘Blue Chamber’ for some meditative solo piano. If you like contrapuntal bop, ‘Starting to Happen’ might be your choice.

Keyboardist Richard Bugbee formed Sea Rocket Jasmine with Dave Halverson, guitarist and founder of longtime San Francisco area art-rock band Trance Lucid. Bugbee has also joined Trance Lucid for their latest release, "Palace of Ether", on Lucid Moon Child Records, 2013.
